#CareerBytes: 7 scholarships for engineering, medical students offered by government

Engineers and doctors are both equally important for the development of the country.

In order to promote quality education in engineering and medicine, the central government provides several scholarships for aspiring students, ensuring that financial issues and other obstacles do not affect their studies.

From government scholarships for general category students to minorities, girls, specially-abled students, and economically-weaker sections, here are 7 top ones.

Students wishing to pursue undergraduate technical/professional courses (maximum 5 years' duration), including engineering and medicine, from any college/institute/university are eligible. Shortlisted applicants are selected after interviews.

Full cost of study plans may be covered, including tuition-fee, maintenance-allowance, hostel/mess charges, etc.

I am in 3rd year of engineering. My family income is less than 6.5 lacs. Am I eligible for MHRD scholarship?

As per the guidelines given by the MHRD, one can apply for 'Central Sector Scheme of Scholarship for College and University Students' if they have scored above 80 percentile in their senior secondary examination and are pursuing the regular course from any of the UGC granted colleges. The family income should be below 8 LPA.

Can a SNQ quota person get scholarship

If your family income is below 8LPA, then you can apply for the scholarship provided by the HRD Ministry in case AICTE allows you to apply for other scholarships also. The Scholarship is 'Central Sector Scholarship Scheme'.
